Key Features

• Designed for CMS-1500: Sized to fit the current HCFA 02/2012 CMS-1500 form so addresses printed on laser forms line up with the window.
• Right single window: A slightly larger right window increases the chance the printed address shows clearly without repositioning each form.
• Self-seal flap: An easy flip-and-seal design removes the need for licking or separate adhesive strips, speeding up bulk mailing.
• Security tint: A dark black interior tint protects sensitive claim details from casual view during transit.
• Bulk pack: A 500-count pack supports high-volume mailings so offices can process claims in larger batches without frequent reordering.

Who It's For

The envelopes are best for medical billing departments, physician offices, and billing service providers who print and mail CMS-1500 forms frequently and want a simple, consistent envelope that matches the form layout. Practices that use laser-printed forms will appreciate the way addresses align with the larger right window.

These are not aimed at users who need heavy-duty, rigid mailers or very thick paper stock; some customers noted the paper is thin. If extremely thick or padded envelopes are required for your workflow, consider a different envelope type.
